7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs 6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb"


2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp"


15 know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that "light bulb" is perfectly correct


19 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb forum


11 to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this forum


36 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty


7 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs


4 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL's


3 to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group


13 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too"


5 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy


4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"


13 to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs"

**********************************************************

What is your problem? It's a goddam joke! 99 and 44/100 of all the jokes posted in this or any news group was "posted elsewhere"!

You left out those who don't read but post anyway. You also abandoned all those who pick apart a post line by line with their editorializing.

And, what do you do while waiting for things to sprout?

What depth do you plant them? How many light bulbs can you carry in a sack? How heavy will that sack be? Do chipmunks prefer light bulbs or bulbs with more mass? Light bulbs must produce pastel flowers.
